Lady who lunches

Elizabeth goes to preschool at Mrs. Rita's house 2 day/week and she has to bring her lunch. I try to make her lunch somewhat cute or fun so she'll eat enough so as not to melt from hunger later in the day. I generally try to pack her something fairly healthy that she will happily eat.
This lunch is a peanut butter and honey sandwich cut in the shape of a mama and baby elephant, some melon, a wholewheat banana bread muffin and some cheese-its. She also gets a thermos of milk to go along with it. I've been using the disposable/reusable tupperwares so that if one gets lost it's not a big deal but we can reuse them to save on the landfills. The melon and cheese its are in muffin tin liners.


This is the cutter that I have for sandwiches. It came in a 4 pack so we also have one that makes a doggie in a house, one that makes two fishes and one that makes a butterfly. If we used normal squarish sandwich bread, this would be perfect for cutting. With the wide whole wheat bread that we use, there is an edge on one side that usually gets eaten at breakfast.


This is another lunch which is quite a bit bigger... I must have been hungry that morning when I was packing. She has peanut butter and jelly, a cheese stick, another muffin, some broccoli, some fruit cocktail and two pink pocky sticks.

And here is the lady who lunches:
